EarthScope and its partners have developed activities, lesson plans, map tools, visualizations--and much more--to help students and teachers work with EarthScope data and science results. These materials (including some translated into Spanish) are mostly 1-page PDF files that can be printed in black-and-white or color and used by students and faculty for research, discussion, and teaching. They include information about EarthScope and its observatories, instrumentation, scientific objectives, and the use of its data.
